Highlights Present a model that designs reliable logistics network for a biomass supply chain. Disruption probabilities of hubs are estimated using a probabilistic model. An accelerated Benders decomposition algorithm is proposed to solve the problem. Numerical results reveal impact of hub disruption risks on a biomass supply chain.

    Abstract This study presents a mathematical model that designs a reliable multi-modal transportation network for a biofuel supply chain system, where intermodal hubs are subject to site-dependent probabilistic disruptions. The disruption probabilities of intermodal hubs are estimated by using a probabilistic model which is developed using real world data. We developed an accelerated Benders decomposition algorithm to solve this challenging NP-hard problem. Numerical analysis show that the model selects to use intermodal hubs located in areas with low disruption probabilities. In case of a disaster, the reliable solution results in 6.21% savings over the minimum cost solution.
